Following the success of the Mindful Money Conference and Awards over the past three years, they are excited to announce an innovative and exciting approach in 2024 - Building Community and Celebrating Excellence.
Attendees at previous conferences have particularly remarked on the way that the event has built community across ethical and impact investing - to learn, share, discuss, and network across the investment and finance world.
Mindful Money plan to do this more intentionally this year. The 2024 conference aims to bring together the key actors in ethical and impact investment and accelerate the growth of positive impact investing into the fund's management mainstream.
Following the conference, the fourth annual Mindful Money Awards ceremony will take place, honouring funds and individuals leading the movement to establish responsible investing as the new standard and positioning impact investing at the progressive forefront.
